Overall, pretty average. I think that there's a lot better Thai food in Indianapolis. I felt like they didn't give a lot of meat or veggies in the dishes and it didn't have significant flavor. It also felt really oily. It was a pretty laid-back vibe and the service was pretty good.
I was craving pad Thai and did a quick google search of what was in the area and found Siam Square and I am so glad I picked it! I placed a carry out order and arrived to a friendly staff and my food ready to go in less than 15-20 minutes. The restaurant was empty at around 4:30 on a Thursday and this needs to change! They were working on a repair at the door but from what I could see inside, the restaurant was clean and spacious! The pad Thai was so delicious! I was nervous when I saw it at first because the noodles were thin but truly the flavor was perfect! I added chicken to my meal. The spring rolls were even better! 10/10! I had leftovers for the next day. I will be back!
This was our first visit and we will definitely be back! It was quiet when we visited (which I like) but still had several customers. We had good service, efficient and friendly. All of the food we had was really quite good. We started with the fried tofu and the sauce was perfect. Our mains were the Tropical Fried Rice and the Green Curry with Tofu. I was able to sub out the eggplant for peppers and it was amazing. Perfect amount of spice. I did order some soup to go (Coconut/Tom Kha) and it was just ok. I've had significantly better soup but everything else was fantastic! We will definitely be back.
This place was very good, my SIL and I went here tonight because I'm in town for work this week. I wanted to order the dumplings as an appetizer but unfortunately it's pork and shrimp (I am not a seafood fan) so instead we tried the curry puffs, which are basically empanadas, but tasted a little bit sweeter. For entrees, she got the drunken noodles with tofu and I had the Pad Kraprow. I did think the entrees were a little bit expensive for the portion sizes, the portion size was great since I wasn't looking to take home any leftovers but for $17 for dinner pricing I was surprised the portion wasn't bigger. They have mango sticky rice as a seasonal dish which was excellent because that's my favorite Thai dessert, it was $12 but was a generous portion. Everything we ate here was very good so I would come back another time when in town. There is free street parking across the street, as well.
I have been to try Siam square for a very long time and finally got a chance as part of a team lunch. I should say the overall food and taste is very flavorful and that packs a good punch in your meal. I tried Siam ginger with shrimp and it had a good taste. Just not spicy it added a good amount of flavor to my meal. There was an add soup served as soon as we got in which in my opinion is so good for winter and flu season. It was tasty yet was so healing to my throat. Must try!
I love the food here! I got the stir fry mixed veggies with chicken. It was served with a side of rice. I chose medium heat. It was the type of heat that just lingered with each bite you take. Perfect! The pad Thai is also great! Definitely recommend getting it with shrimp! The spring rolls are crispy perfection! Every time I've been there's never been a wait. Service is prompt. It's usually quiet from the times I've been. Even on a Friday night it's a relaxing place to get a good bite.
This was my first visit to Fountain Square's Siam Square, a Thai restaurant describing itself as "vibrant Thai cuisine." If you've ever been to the Fountain Square area, you know the entire neighborhood has a myriad of accessibility issues. I have to admit I was a little concerned about committing to a restaurant I really didn't know in a neighborhood where I knew accessibility could be an issue. I parked 3-4 blocks away in a side parking lot that offered a spot likely to maintain accessibility. This neighborhood does tend to have fairly decent curb cuts, though sidewalks are in various forms of disarray. Siam Square is not on the side of the street that has the Cultural Trail, so the sidewalk here is definitely a concern. That said, I made it fairly easily. Siam Square has a green canopy entrance. It's an older building with a narrow wooden door. My lunch guests had some concerns about my entry, however, I was able to make it. As you enter, you turn slightly to the right to enter and face a hosting area and then the simply yet pleasantly decorated dining room. As a matter of note, my smaller manual wheelchair made the turn fairly easily. However, I would have some concerns about a motorized chair being able to make it. It's a sharp, narrow turn. Three of us were dining and we sat at a 4-top. Our server was quiet but pleasant and helpful throughout our time there.I was the only newbie to Siam Square. I ordered the sweet and sour chicken. I was asked if I wanted it mild, medium, or hot. To be safe, I chose medium. I regretted this as I found the medium VERY mild. I ordered unsweetened iced tea and did get my always desired refill. Siam Square has lunch specials Tuesday-Friday (closed Monday). They offer starters, small dishes, soups, stir-fried entrees, fried rice, thai coconut curries, seafood specialties, a small dessert menu, and a small kids' menu. Drinks include coke products, Thai iced coffee, Thai iced tea, ginger tea, hot tea, and chrysanthemum honey tea. I enjoyed my time here quite a bit, a combination of a solid meal and good company with a warm, comfy atmosphere. I arrived right as they opened and it was still fairly quiet. I'm not sure I'd go out of the way to dine here but certainly wouldn't hesitate to return when in the area. As I noted, several restaurants on this strip are not accessible (most have a step into them) and despite some challenges Siam Square does offer a level to the ground entryway. It was a beautiful day to hang out in Fountain Square and I was pleased to finally be able to visit this restaurant I'd long desired to check out.
There is a small parking lot next to the restaurant and then street parking in front. It has a nice interior with a couple fun bamboo walls and cool light fixtures. We got a table quickly. Our server was nice and checked in throughout the meal. We started with the steamed dumplings which didn't have a lot of flavor. My panang Curry was medium and could have a bit more spice and a few more green beans. Portion size was good and the price was moderate.
$21 dollars for this, is sad. But he portion size fits in a cereal bowl. The heat is not what I asked for. My other dishes have hardly any protein in them, even though I had to pay an extra $3 dollars for beef.

Objective thinking about Siam Square. Advantages 1. Traditional thai food, delicious and delicate 2 The only thai restaurant not far from downtown 3. Small but nice ambience Disadvantages 1. A little bit over the average price. Some dishes are as same as other thai restaurants, but more expensive 2. Sometimes inconsistently read more
Sigh. I have been searching for a Thai restaurant that hasn't "Americanized" the menu, that doesn't offer everything with a "1-5" choice for spice. OK, pet peeve aside, it was a solid 4 star experience. We got there around 7pm, and got seated right away, which was nice. Hot ginger tea, and we both ordered "medium" which was right around "3" on the 1-5 scale. (I know, put it aside) Started with Veggie Tempura, small portion to share, but very tasty and nice selection of vegetables. Paradise shrimp showed up as promised, bright green fresh tasting snow peas with tomatoes and a half dozen big shrimp. Don't let the lack of that fifth star keep you away, I'm stingy with stars, 4 means really good, but not the best I've ever had. That would be Thai Landing in Baltimore on Charles. read more
Highly over-rated Thai 'like' food. Food quality is mostly okay, although I was served mild instead of hot (well could have been worse if it went the other way!). The soup was actually hot. Not sure how many diners were able to down the soup for lunch today. It's usually two scale lower in heat level. Apart from the noise level the poor quality of service adds to the disappointment. They are not being able to handle peak load the last few times I was here for lunch. Not only from a service standpoint but also accuracy of order and taste of food. Lastly from a quantity standpoint, no other Thai restaurant in Indy (or any other place I am familiar with) serves food with such a small portion size. Ah a very important thingy! Please clean your tables with soap and warm water. I couldn't life my bill off the table nor could I touch the table without feeling yucky! No it's not the humidity outside. This isn't last week! read more

One of the best Thai restaurants we've tried in Indy! The food is delicious and 100% vegetarian friendly - they can make everything without fish/oyster sauce and it tastes delicious. We ordered the fresh rice paper rolls, papaya salad, green curry, drunken noodle, and pad ped. All were fantastic! The atmosphere is casual, service is good, and parking is easy (there is a lot right next door). Would definitely recommend this restaurant for tasty thai food!! read more

I love Siam Square! The green curry only comes in medium heat or higher (same for the other curries and some of the other dishes), but the heat does not drown out the other flavors in this dish. I ordered the chicken curry but didn't have a lot of chicken in the dish. However, the portions are pretty large and definitely enough for leftovers next day. The atmosphere at Siam Square is fairly laid back and the waitresses I've had have always been very friendly. Service is fairly quick and we were checked up on very frequently. I would also recommend getting the iced Thai chai with your meal. Perfect amount of tea and cream, and if you're like me and can't handle a lot of spice, the iced Thai tea cools off the heat. I typically ask for light ice and forgot... only regret of the night. read more

I have loved Siam Square since the first time I went there. It's a quaint little place located in Fountain Square and I am a HUGE fan of coconut curry. I have tried both the red and the green coconut curry in both the medium and the hot spiciness. It is served with the rice on the side and the curry in the bowl, but I personally like to just dump all of the rice in the bowl with the curry and eat it with a spoon. I have been there several times and didn't have a problem with the service I received. However, I went here for dinner tonight around 6:45 PM and the wait was over 45 minutes after we ordered the food. Around the 30 minute mark, the waiter came to us and said that there is a party upstairs and it was going to still be a bit before our food came out. I think the information would have been nice earlier on so that we could have ordered an appetizer knowing it would be such a long wait. He seemed to be apologetic, but it was a less than satisfactory experience because of that (the food was still great). Since I've had better experiences with service in the past, I'm hoping this was a one-time fluke. I will come here again in the future simply because the food is SO delicious. read more

What a great Thai place! I love coming here to get my pad seuw fix. Everything else on their menu is great too. Service is fast and friendly. Lunch portions are smaller than dinner portions (I can actually finish everything!) read more
This was a great surprise for a Sunday evening. I started off my meta with a Thai Iced Tea. If you have not had this before, it is very unique (in a good way). I personally think it is worth trying. As an appetizer we had curry rolls and crab rangoon's. I have never seen curry rolls before, and I have been thinking about them for the past 24 hours. They had a great curry flavor along with a little sweetness. The crab rangoons had a great balance between cream cheese and crab. The ginger sweet and sour sauce stole the show. These were great appetizers. For dinner we had the green curry. I like spicy food, but I don't need it spicy, so the mild green curry was great. Overall, a great experience with a very pleasant staff and ambiance. read more

4 star for their red curry. We've tried other Thai places in Indy but SiamSquare's red curry is the closest to our favorite, the ones we used to get from Exotic Thai in Terre Haute, before they closed early this year. We'd definitely come back here if ever we are in the mood for red curry. read more

In a word: YUM. After reading good things about Siam Square (thank Thomas W.H. and Jimmie S.!), my boyfriend and I decided to check it out last night. We arrived around 8:30 or 9:00 on a Saturday and there were plenty of other diners inside, but we were quickly seated. I liked the modern and clean atmosphere with brightly colored walls, but my only complaint was that the dining area was a little loud. Perhaps they could incorporate some upholstered furniture or something to absorb all the sound! Siam Square's beer and wine lists, while not extensive, satisfied our needs. I usually can't handle spicy food and am definitely not an expert in Thai, or any type of Asian, cuisine. So, I wasn't quite sure what to order but was pleased to find out that most of their dishes can be ordered mild, medium or spicy. I opted for mild, and my boyfriend went for medium -- which was too hot for me! My Drunken Noodles with Chicken were delicious! The noodles were giant and tender, and there were plenty of fresh veggies with it. I also loved the flavor and texture of the chicken-- nothing is worse than chicken with gristle or an odd flavor. I would definitely order this dish again! Dan had the Pad Ba Mee-- also a noodle dish with veggies, but his came with shrimp and calamari. He loved it! I tried it, and probably would have liked it too, except that it was too spicy for my wimpy mouth. The portions of both were very generous, but the cold leftovers tasted just as good later on! They have several interesting dessert options, including a couple of fried banana dishes and a Thai ice cream that is bright blue! Next time, I hope I have room to sample these items. I also would like to go back for lunch - $7.99 gets you an entree, spring roll and soup (Monday-Friday). What a deal! If you aren't familiar with Thai cuisine and aren't sure if you'll like it, I would recommend giving Siam Square a try. They have quite a few options that are sure to please the pickiest of eaters. Next time I am tempted to go to PF Chang's for Asian food (I told you... I'm not an expert on Thai, Chinese or any Asian cuisine at all!), I will go to Siam Square instead. Less wait, better prices and more original menu options! read more

Not bad! Was thoroughly surprised to find a delectable Thai place in downtown Indy. I asked for the spiciest level of heat and they surprisingly did not disappoint. The outside of the restaurant doesn't look like much but the inside is not as disappointing as its outer appearance. We were the first to arrive on that Sunday for lunch but service quickly picked up! Clearly the locals know that this is one of the few goos oriental restaurants in downtown Indianapolis. read more

We came here for one reason and that reason is taro ice cream. This nicely polished Thai restaurant is owned by a great asset to the Indy restaurant community. The food is nicely plated and very delicious. The curry, while good, was not the best I have had in Indy (that goes to Thai Spice) but it was great. The pad thai, however, was addicting and delicious. I am not even the biggest pad thai fan (a good dish, but so generic when it comes to Thai cuisine. There are so many other facets to this country's food, why get the "Big Mac" every time?) but the wife ONLY eats this at Thai places. Oh well. Worth it. One of the best noodle dishes in Indy for sure. The reason, again, we came here was a photo on Yelp of some unnaturally purple TARO ice cream. We LOVE taro anything. When in Hawaii or at Yogokiss on Indy's northside, we have taro bubble tea or taro yogurt. This dessert did not disappoint. Bananas wrapped in won tons and deep fried. Drizzled with honey. Extra scoop of the purple stuff for $3 is worth it if sharing. They also have coconut or mango ice cream with this dessert if taro is not your thing. Great, clean, friendly place with amazing food. read more

Where do I begin? This place set the standard for all other Thai restaurants, I've traveled to DC, the quote unquote mecca of ethic food in america, everything place paled in comparison. So essentially Indy has a 5 star Thai restaurant! The flavors are true, mild is mild, medium is medium, and hot is truly hot. I've found with many ethnic restaurants in the midwest, the flavors are bland and lacking in taste. I indulge in the curry dishes here, perfect balance of proteins, veggies, and spices/chilies. For dessert the taro ice cream is amazing, don't be afraid of the royal purple, it's root vegetable tastes similar to a blend of pistachio/sweet potato/coconut. Pair the Taro and fried bananas and your meal is complete. As for the ambiance, it's clean and colorful. Good for a date or a night out with your friends. read more

Ranked by NUVO readers as the best Thai restaurant in Indy in 2014, Siam Square has excellent authentic Thai food cooked on real woks. The owners of Siam Square also own Rook and have ownership in Thunderbird and Black Market (I believe). I've been getting takeout from Siam Square a lot lately (I only live a few blocks away) and love it. Although typical, my favorite is probably the Pad Thai or the Green Curry. The Siam Roll is a solid appetizer as well and Thom Yum is my go-to for soup. Other than that, it's just a matter of going and trying things out. Portions are good and worth the price in everything except a few appetizers that could be bulked up a bit. Solid bottle beer options, but only 2 drafts. From what I understand, one is always an IPA and the other is a seasonal. A decent amount of wine options as well. The environment is okay. Not a fine-dining place by any means, but not your typical hole-in-the-wall Asian restaurant either. There is also an upstairs where I've seen big parties go and a cool small bar downstairs. When I do lunch take out, it's typically professionals from Lily or other places downtown filling the diner. Dinner has mostly trendy couples and parties. Always plenty of friendly serving staff to take care of you. This place is excellent. I definitely recommend whether you're a Thai veteran or cultural food newbie! read more

I can not NOT eat spicy food for most meals. Thai is (next to Mexican) is my favorite food and this place does a pretty good job! I love the grouper with the yum sauce! It had a sweet and spicy flavor and comes with fresh veggies in top! I am usually not a fish person, but boy on boy this won't disappoint. To finish I always get the roti rolls. They're basically mini elephant ears rolled and drizzled with sweetened condensed milk. Can you imagine?! It's quite a bit for just one person so, sharing is caring! read more
